It has been such an extraordinary weekend to me. My weekend began with the Motor Show that was packed with cool concept cars and decent looking models. Then it was Jason who invited me to watch a Spanish movie with him at the Art House – Torremolinos 73, a black comedy. And it ended with a wonderful jamming session with Jason and listenning to the Blue.
Torremolinos is a movie about a door-to-door encyclopaedia salesman who turned into an educational adult film maker with his wife as the star. While the adult films were banned in Spain, they were hot in the Scandinavian market. His wife wanted a baby so much while the husband, hardly able to sustain a family of two, insisted on using a condom every time they made love. The irony later on as the story unfold was that for the last six years they have been making love with condoms, it was the same six years that the husband has zero sperm count.
The main twist of the story came when the main character has become so good at filming that he has written a new script called Torremolinos 73 – a title inspired by one of the sexy poster he saw while he was making sample for the sperm test. It was a show about a widow who met someone who looked exactly like her late husband in one of the honeymoon resort.
Soon he became the director of his new movie and he got his wife as the main actress. Towards the end of the filming, the producer made an unexpected change in script asking the sex symbol – his wife – to mate with one of the actor – her supposed late husband in the show. The irony was that she actually wanted it because she wanted a baby so much. The most painful scene was that the director – her husband – has to see through the entire act. Well, in the end, he got a movie while she got a baby. Happy ending? Perhaps.
Sunday, it was all about blue. Jason and I had a jamming session and we have covered quite a number of songs as well as some of the songs that could be in the pipeline. We jammed metal music as well as a remix on Sweet Dream (Are Made Of This). After dinner, Jason and I were both into blue music – Eric Clapton, Aerosmith’s latest blue album, Steve Ray Vaughan, Neil Young, and Jimi Hendrix. I am so inspired to write a blue album. We shall see.
